Limitless Evolution: The Path To Immortality

Greed’s agility once again proved to be her saving grace. She twisted and turned, her movements are fluid and graceful, dodging the golden lasers with remarkable finesse. The bolts exploded harmlessly against the surrounding environment, leaving Greed untouched.

The battle continued for a couple of minutes, yet to every one of them, a second felt like an eternity.

A second was the difference between life and death. One wrong move and they could be laying on the floor with a puddle of blood pooling under them. 

They all knew that, and that’s why they were being careful.

At the same time, they had to make sure that they were, at the very least, overwhelming her with a torrent of attacks.

For now, they had to make sure that she didn’t give the order for all of the people of the city to kill themselves.

At the same time, even though they would have liked to have Archie’s abilities on their side, there was a small problem.

Right now he was powerless, but removing the cuffs would give him his power back.

However, he had a slave collar on his neck, so removing the cuffs wouldn’t work in their favor. At the same time, they couldn’t remove the collar since, from what Silas understood, removing it forcefully without the right procedures in place could damage the person’s life force and even turn them into a vegetable.

While Silas, Life, Death, and Eclipse attacked over and over again with the hopes that she would eventually get tired, Greed showcased her mastery of combat and her uncanny ability to adapt to her opponents’ tactics. Despite their combined efforts, she stood strong, her armor seemingly impenetrable.

Silas, now witnessing the extent of Greed’s power, knew that they needed a different approach.

Her armor was strong. Very strong. Almost too strong. It was definitely in the Advanced tier. Virack had told Silas that Gran’t armor was most likely in the king tier if not higher at its peak. However, right now Grant’s armor didn’t stand a chance against Greed’s.

Even if he had it, Silas doubted he would be able to activate it as much as Aleck, the commander. At the same time, Grant wasn’t very willing to give his armor to Silas.

‘Speaking of Grant… Where is that bastard!’ Silas inwardly roared before landing on one of the buildings.

The right had long since entered the cities, yet the plan was still not in motion.

Jessica was still completing *it*, so for now, they had to do everything they could until *it* was finished.

Looking at the battle occurring before him, Silas realized something.

Even though he wasn’t there to attack Greed, they were doing a little better than he would have liked.

They had much more chemistry without him being there to help them, and so far it had been doing wonders.

Of course, at the same time, they hadn’t really gotten past the outer shell.

For some reason, Greed didn’t seem to own a helmet, so the entire time she had been weaving and blocking all the attacks that were aimed at her head while letting her body absorb the rest since they couldn’t get through the armor.

However, Silas could tell that something was weird about the armor. It felt like, every time they hit it, the runes were shining a little faster, and a little brighter than before.

The mana pulsing from the armor was stronger too… As if every attack that landed on her was being absorbed. Though, it wasn’t being used as energy for her to land stronger attacks, since it wasn’t being distributed…

Which could only mean one thing.

‘Son of a bitch.’

However, he was too late.

Greed waited until they were all close enough, and when they had finally reached a certain distance, she let it all out in one fabulous display of power.

The generals were quickly shot in opposite directions as the wave of mana came out of her armor and destroyed everything within a 35-meter radius.

Cursing himself, Silas took a step forward, a bloody aura exploding out of him as he channeled all mana through his body. Flames enveloped and began to dance across his axes, their heat intensifying with each passing moment. 

Without hesitation, he let out a war cry.

However, this war cry was not normal.

The color around Silas’ neck changed a little, while mana piled within his maw before he finally opened it and released a powerful wave of sound that shot through the air and appeared in front of Greed in an instant.

Greed felt the impact of the sound wave, however, despite it not hurting anything but her sensitive ears, that wasn’t the point of this attack.

Leaning forward, Silas shot through the air at such a speed that he became a blur of color.

Using a mixture of fire, air, water, earth, the speed ring, and fire fusion as well, Silas had created the fastest launch spell he had ever made.

The earth below him had sunken, before water and fire propelled him through the air. At the same time, Silas used air magic to part the air in front of him to not suffer any drag.

“You’re quite fast.” Greed muttered with a low tone while slashing her claws toward him.

He was moving far too quickly, so there was no way he could dodge it, right? Or at least that was what went through her head at the moment.

However, Silas wasn’t planning on dodging it.

Pulling his axes back, Silas got ready to activate one of his axe’s active abilities.

Taking a short breath in, his eyes blazed with determination before eventually, he was right in front of Greed who was staring at him with a psychotic smile on her face that even she didn’t realize she was making.

‘Fuck the buildings.’ Silas muttered and let out a slash in an X shape.

‘Tier-4 Spell’

‘Cinders’
